This is why the show is inferior to the first. Why would you drop a scandal like that and then write out the character?

Like they could have easily set up a rivalry with the main cast members getting proof and exposing the incest by having the girl enroll at Constance. Then the political scandal would have erupted. It at least would have been more entertaining than what we are getting. And seeing Obie try to pull off the scheme would have made his character mildly more interesting. His relationship with Julien is boring af.

I was so confused at that "reveal". Maybe I need to watch that scene again (I'm not doing it) but how the hell did they all jump to the conclusion that they're committing twincest? Like... is it that weird for her to want to hang out and catch up with her brother if she's following her mom on her campaign trail and her brother is about to go to college? For all we know, her mom is putting immense pressure on her by using her as a venting ground since you never know who you can trust when it comes to politics. Maybe she just needs some downtime with family that isn't her mom.

Well it was revealed that she secretly met with her brother in a hotel room. And then the mom commented something that implied it happened more than once. Then her secret boyfriend was like "your brother?!?". Then followed by Luna commenting that twincest is not what she expected. It was implied by her mom and the reaction from her and her twin. But yeah it was a blink and you miss it moment. If this happened in the 07 version I am sure the reveal would have been more obvious. But yeah it was a weird and poorly written scene.

I did not see thé twincest coming

This sounds like a mess and a half. Glad I didn't get sucked into this.

i hope twincest girl never comes back because her acting is atrocious and it's remarkable that it's noticeable around how bad everyone is, but that's how much she sucks

i said this in the other post but i genuinely don't know why i watch this show because it's so bad. not even funny bad, just boring, poorly done bad. how did they hire every worst actor possible? whoever did the casting should never cast again.

i'm just holding out til michelle trachtenberg guest stars i guess

My partner judges me so hard every time I turn this show on. It’s so bad but also endearing??? Honestly I’m just obsessed with Aki’s pink haired skateboarder aesthetic 🥵

[neuers]

lmao, I feel the same tbh <3

Like, it's soooo bad but I also appreciate how charming it can be :')

[pseudonygma]

Same! I don't get it either. We're all complaining about it every week but we tune in all the same, lol. The OG has us all hoping the quality will magically improve.
